Cultureword
This Summer Cultureword is capturing what cycling means to Mancunians. The freedom, the adventures and the frustrations. Join us at this unique Open Mic showcasing short stories and poems about bikes and the environment, hosted at the lovely Station South Cycling Café.
This event is in the lead up to the launch of Saddle Stories, an exciting new audio anthology showcasing Mancunian cycling culture and a green vision of society.
Email ella@cultureword.org.uk to sign up for a slot at the open mic. Open to all – regardless of cycling or writing experience!
